Understanding 1985 Jaguar Vanden plas Wheel Fitment
Getting the right wheel fitment on your 1985 Jaguar Vanden plas comes down to four critical measurements:
Bolt Pattern: 5x120.65
The bolt pattern (also called PCD) is the most fundamental fitment spec — it determines which wheels will physically bolt onto your car. The 1985 Jaguar Vanden plas uses a 5x120.65 pattern, which is shared with many other Jaguar models. This means you have a massive selection of aftermarket wheels to choose from.
Center Bore: 73.9mm
The center bore is the hole in the middle of the wheel that sits over your hub. The 1985 Jaguar Vanden plas has a 73.9mm center bore. If your aftermarket wheels have a larger bore (which is common), you'll need hub-centric rings to eliminate vibration at highway speeds. We include the correct hub rings with every wheel and tire package.
Offset & Width
Offset determines how far the wheel sits inward or outward relative to the hub face. A lower offset pushes the wheel outward for a more aggressive, flush look. A higher offset tucks the wheel further under the fender for a conservative fitment. The factory offset of +33 is a good baseline — going 5-15mm lower will give you a more flush look.
